ET GCC Annual Conclave 2024: Unlocking India's Potential as a Global Hub for AI, Jobs, and Strategic Business Growth

New Delhi: The Economic Times is set to gather business and tech leaders from across the globe at its highly anticipated Global Capability Centers (GCC) Conclave 2024. This year’s event will focus on India’s growing dominance in the global business landscape, with GCCs leading the charge in cutting-edge technology, AI innovation, and strategic global operations.

Bengaluru, already recognized as a hub for over 875 GCCs, continues to solidify its place as a global innovation powerhouse. Karnataka’s ambitious new GCC policy aims to attract an additional 500 centers by 2029, promising 350,000 new jobs and a staggering $50 billion economic boost. The state is positioning itself as a world leader in AI research, specifically designed to fuel the growth and competitiveness of GCCs.

In a bid to extend this success, the "Beyond Bengaluru" initiative is set to transform cities like Mangaluru, Mysuru, and Hubballi-Dharwad into thriving tech hubs, spreading the benefits of GCC growth across Karnataka.

At the ET GCC Annual Conclave 2024, key figures in global business and technology will discuss the strategic importance of GCCs to India's rise as a leader in AI and innovation. The event will explore India’s expanding role in global business strategy, the vital role of government support, and how emerging technologies are revolutionizing business operations.
